Configuring a static group member
About static group members
You can configure an interface as a static member of an IPv6 multicast group. Then, the interface can always receive IPv6 multicast data for the group.
A static group member does not respond to MLD queries. When you complete or cancel this configuration on an interface, the interface does not send an unsolicited MLD report or done message.
Restrictions and guidelines
The interface to be configured as a static member of an IPv6 multicast group has the following restrictions:
If the interface is MLD and IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, it must be an IPv6 PIM-SM DR.
If the interface is MLD enabled but not IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, it must be an MLD querier.
For more information about IPv6 PIM-SM and DR, see "Configuring IPv6 PIM."
